      Needs a serious dedicated District Manager

      Manager
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Good pay and bonus’ for meeting sales quotas (as a store manager)

      Cons

      Broken communication and lack of district manager visits allow stores to self deprecate. Not to mention, teammates barely get hours and when they are doing good, there are no incentives for regular sales mates. There is only so much managers can do for their sales members and it feels shady for us not being able to give them hours yet the company opens stores up left and right.. so now our market is saturated.

      Great Work Culture

      Retail management
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      I have worked for several corporate retailers, and this company is by far the best. There is really good communication between all levels of management and HQ. The field teams contribute a lot to what happens at HQ which is rare. The company values open and honest 2 way communication. There are a lot of opportunities for growth since the company is consistently opening up new locations at both brands. The majority of District Managers are internal promotes, so they know the reality of managing a store. Higher level management is relatable and understanding. The company will develop you if you are willing to put in the work. The company also values a work life balance and shared responsibilities between all members of the team. There is a reason that so many employees have been with the company for so long.

      Cons

      Very high selling, visual & operational standards for the amount of payroll each store can use. Mgrs work on single coverage frequently. Pay rates aren't great for part timers. Sales associates work 1-2 short shifts per week. (To be fair, its not like stores are driving a ton of volume to do otherwise) Lots of frustrating tech issues that impact day to day operations.

      Skip the headache

      Assistant manager

      CEO approval

      Pros

      loungefly, funko pops, lots of products

      Cons

      the WORST case of mean girl culture I think i've ever worked for. The discounts don't even make sense. literally, (I counted this morning) 8 excel sheets to set up for a typical retail day, and 4-5 you have to manage on a daily basis. Everything is ran through excel/outlook, which for a company established for almost 10 years and a parent that's been around since 1989, disappointed that it isn't more mainstreamed. Below average pay, especially for the volume the store puts out. If you don't make sales goals, by the end of the week they're making you take hour+ lunches, and sending people home. Oh, and now they're doing a physical sheet that's looking so closely at employee KPI's, its a recipe for disaster.
